Mauritania is culturally and politically part of the Arab world; it is a member of the Arab League and Arabic is the official language. The official religion is Islam, and almost all inhabitants are Sunni Muslims. Despite its prevailing Arab identity, Mauritanian society is multiethnic; the Bidhan, or so-called “white moors”, make up 30% of the population, while the Haratin, or so-called “black moors”, comprise 40%. Both groups reflect a fusion of Arab-Berber ethnicity, language, and culture. The remaining 30% of the population comprises various sub-Saharan ethnic groups.

as long as frexit or itexit stays a fantasy, it doesn’t matter

said 5167(?) is mount Ararat and it’s clearly not in Europe

but!

when the Europe/Asia separation is based on identity politics… (cough: religion) and Georgia, Armenia or Cyprus is included in Europe but not Turkey, there’s no need to argue 🤷

Ararat’s Armenian history shouldn’t be ignored either

mapping and geolocation services link converter

where you can have your phone found even when powered off, and that is using location services, which does involve bluetooth.

at that time they should just stop using the term “power off”

any sources?

do you have your Bluetooth enabled at all times?

you don’t need to use the server. You can set it to be triggered only by sms and there wouldn’t be any “aggregated information”

if you don’t use the server it has practically no load on your battery. it sleeps until you trigger it to send information.

with uBlock muting all 3rd party it scrolls fine here

then don’t use deezer

Explanations for Iceland’s non-membership of the European Union

• The importance of the fishing industry to Iceland’s economy and the perception that EU membership (and its Common Fisheries Policy) will have an adverse effect on the fishing industry.
• The perception that EU membership will have an adverse effect on Iceland’s agricultural sector.
• Iceland’s strong ties with the United States, which included significant economic, diplomatic and military assistance, decreased Iceland’s dependence on European countries.
• The victories in the Cod Wars may have strengthened Icelandic nationalism and boosted the perception that Iceland can succeed through unilateral or bilateral means rather than compromise in multilateral frameworks.
• The Icelandic electoral system favors rural areas, which are more eurosceptic.
• The tendency for Icelandic elites to pursue education in the United States or eurosceptic European countries (such as the United Kingdom or the Nordic countries), and to cooperate more closely with political elites from those countries.
• Icelandic nationalism and the legacy of Iceland’s past as a colonial entity.
• The impact of the Icesave dispute with the Netherlands and the UK.
